change 298
to 300, and
add 345+300=645
and then subtract 2
and your answer is
643
change 399
to 400 and
add 500 and then
add 67 to make
967










you have to add 68 not 67

take 3 from
768 and give
it to 497 then
subtract
765 - 500 = 265


































actually add 3 to 497 to get 500 then do 768-500 to get 268 then add 3 because you took away too many to get 271.


























Change the problem to make it easier to multiply. For example, you can multiply one number by two
if you multiply the other by 1/2. Try making your own and solving it in the top row.

Multiply by Splitting


When one number of a multiplication pair has two digits, try splitting that number into two parts by dividing it by 2.
Example: 9 x 12
Split 12 into two parts: 12=6x2
Instead of 9x12 (9x6x2) think 9 x 6 and then double it.
9x6=54 Double 54 and you get 108.

1. 8 x 16

2. 5 x 22

3. 6 x 18

4. 7 x 14

5. 9 x 16

6. 12 x 24
